Can someone give me an example of a command that I can send to XBMC's event server? I'm not sure if it needs to receive the UDP packet in ascii or hex format.

Grab SimpleEventClient.zip from http://swarchive.ratsauce.co.uk/XBMC/. This is an event client I wrote in C++ to experiment with the Event Server API. It won't win any design prizes, but it will show you how the code works.

I was thinking of writing one for winlirc, for my own use mostly :p But i couldn't figure out what I was meant to do with regards to some sort of keymap.xml

Thanks for the example program. However, I don't know how to read C++. I'm trying to define a command to send to the event server from CommandFusion's iViewer and I can't seem to find the protocol outlined on the wiki or any where else. Can someone outline the protocol and a test command and I should be good from there. I was hoping to test with a UDP test send utility.

So I found a python script that I can kinda read. It lists the basic workflow like:
1. Send a HELO packet
2. Send x number of valid packets
3. Send a BYE packet
So I see I need to send this HELO packet. Can this be sent in ASCII or does it have to be hex?
